In this step you will create the Silverlight application and add the appropriate references and namespaces. You will also set the Brush Styles in your MainPage.xaml file.

1. Create a new Silverlight application in Visual Studio and name it CustomView.
2. Add the following references to your application by right-clicking the References folder in the Solution Explorer and selecting Add Reference from the list. Browse to the folder where your references are located and select the following:
   • C1.Silverlight
   • C1.Silverlight.Data
   • C1.Silverlight.DateTimeEditors
   • C1.Silverlight.Schedule
3. In your MainPage.xaml file, add the following to the namespace declarations:

   xmlns:c1="http://schemas.componentone.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

4. Add the <UserControl.Resources> <UserControl.Resources/> tags below the namespace declarations.
5. Click between the <UserControl.Resources> tags and insert the following XAML to provide the style and brush resources for the page:
